October is pretty great for a candy-lover like myself. The month always kicks off with the ceremonial Buying of the Brach’s Candy Corn (the best on the planet, don’t bother trying any others). The stores are filled with bite-sized everything. It’s sugary-sweet overload.

Speaking of sugar overload…

Last night my neighbor (a fellow confection connoisseur) and I were craving these cupcakes.

These cupcakes are not normal. If you like chocolate and peanut butter… they will send you to another dimension. Actual quote from neighbor’s husband: “I feel like I’m gonna die.” Ironic because I just learned by looking at the recipe title that they are literally called “To Die For Peanut Butter Cup Cupcakes.”
